3. Offerings of food and wine are left at the opening of Merlin's cave.

He is lusting so strongly, he is so "in love" with her, that he can think of nothing else. Merlin must give him a draught to get him some sleep.

7. Ygraine was sick and so sent for Merlin.

Answer: False

Ygraine was not sick. She was faking it so that she could be alone with Merlin and plan her tryst with Uther.

8. What ailment does Merlin tell Ygraine to confess to?

Answer: Pregnancy

Merlin tells Ygraine to say she is pregnant. Not only does this give her a reason to leave Uther's court, but Merlin is fortelling the pregnancy that will occur because of Ygraine and Uther's lust.

Answer: Ralf

Ralf is Ygraine's male servant who helps arrange the tryst between Uther and Ygraine.

10. Gorlois is the Duke of Cornwall.

Answer: True

Gorlois runs with his wife to Cornwall knowing that Uther will chase after his. It was an insult for Gorlois to leave London without Uther's permission.

11. Who was Merlin disguised as when they went to Tintagel?

Answer: Brithael

Brithael was Gorlois's most faithful servant. Merlin looked and sounded a lot like him, so the disguise worked very well.

12. What is the password to enter Tintagel?

Answer: Pilgrim

Everyone must say "pilgrim" to enter Tintagel.

13. In a vision, Merlin sees __________ coming down the stairs to give him a child.

14. Who comes to tell Ygraine her husband is dead?

Answer: Brithael

Brithael had seen his Lord killed in a battle and came to Tintagel to tell the Queen. Merlin was forced to kill him to prevent anyone from knowing Uther was there with the Queen.

15. What was Cadal's last request?

Answer: "Make the sign for me."

Cadal was too weak to make his sign. This sign would be the equivalent to Catholics making the sign of the cross.
